Dear Brothers and Sisters,We reached Brindavan by 6:45AM today. I was late for

the lines going in. So I found a seat in the third row of the extension behind

the Saraswathy idol. From here, I could see the Trayee gate as well as entire

central aisle. Having reached late, I couldn't ask for more. By 7:40AM, the

music started, followed by Omkara and Bhajans. Soon Swamy emerged and got down

at the ladies' entrance. HE received letters from the lady devotees, blessed

them as HE walked to the central aisle. Now, HE turned right and walked on the

central aisle. Today the ladies had a great day as Swamy made Vibhuti for

someone and in general took many letters from them. Now and then, HE cast a

look at us all and with an upward raising hand, HE lifted us all. Now, HE has

reached the end of the Ramesh hall. I really had a good view sitting straight,

seeing Swamy in full all the time. Having reached the end of the hall, HE now

turned to HIS left, about to go to the right aisle. By now, the car caught up

and the door was opened for Swamy. HE got into the car. The car was about to go

straight and onto the right aisle. But Swamy said, HE wanted to go the

extension. We were excited! The car slowly drove circumambulating the

Saraswathy idol and we in the extension had a real close darshan of our Lord. I

felt deeply grateful to all those who worked to raise this low ground to the

level where it is now. Now, sitting here, we could see Swamy through out. This

was not possible last year. We were simply thrilled to have had the closest

darshan of this summer so far. Thank you Bhagawan. You prove time and again

that Your grace is unlimited. Only our mind is limited.Having gone round the

Saraswathy idol, the car now was on the right aisle and reached the stage in a

couple of minutes. Swamy came out and the small elevator took HIM on to the

stage. HE assumed HIS throne. Bhajans were going on and Swamy sat for about

eight to ten bhajans, often signaling HIS right hand upwardly, lifting us all.

It looked like a symbolic execution of what HE said once, 'MY descent is for

your ascent'. After sitting for about half an hour now, Bhagawan went back to

Trayee through the door on the stage. Another holy day has passed but not after

making us feel better, holier and most importantly, happier. Jai Sai Ram.

At HIS Lotus Feet, always-- Ramesh Sistla
